So many things I love about this story. John being thrown when Teyla leans on him and worried about clonking her in the ear; Rodney's snarky teasing and John's awareness that he can't be pushed too hard physically in a crisis; Ford all cleaned-up & adult - very much his own man. And Kanaan is great - bitter and doing stupid things for good reasons, and smart with tech and brave. There's nowhere near enough Kanaan in canon so this was excellent. I loved so many of the details like "Torren'll grow up," Ronon said. He had a way of using the pauses and lulls in conversations to frame his statements and give them weight. That's exactly what Ronon does, yes! And that bit where John's all squirmy because he thinks Teyla & Kanaan are going to talk about feelings but no, it's just their Wraith spidey-senses pinging! Ha. Oh, and John going why was it always fog? like Sigourney Weaver in Galaxy Quest moaning about always having to crawl through goddam ducts! Yay for teamy goodness, and plot, and of course, a little John-whumping. An excellent read! (Edited because smartphone typing finger is clumsy :S )
